4WD Rental Car in NZ
We will be in the south island for three weeks in September for a skiing
holiday and wanting to hire a larger type 4WD that can fit 3 adults and 2 teenagers (not a squeezy Subaru). Can anyone recommend a suitable hire company. We plan to travel from Queenstown though to Christchurch during our time there. |

Whay a 4wd - I think most areas are 2wd accessible.

I'd also question a 4WD - the hire car companies in NZ are very unlikely to let you loose on some of the "hairiest" roads on the South Island anyway, whether in a 2 or 4 WD. Three or four years ago we hired from Ace, although their vehicles weren't new they were in very good condition, and represented very good value for money compared with the big multinationals. You'd probably be better off with a people mover category vehicle for your crowd plus luggage. See http://www.acerentals.co.nz/ Regards David Bennetts |
